Overview of Valley Spring Memory Care

The secured setting offers supervision for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia who may be at risk of wandering.

Medicare is listed as an accepted payment option, although it generally covers short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence. Families will need to understand how that distinction affects payment for an ongoing stay.

Pets are allowed, so a resident may keep a pet while living in the community.
